Christmas gifts

Tues, Nov 3rd, 2009

Woke up bright and early. No more jet-lag.. yeh!!!

Had to start planning my annual Christmas gift purchases.

Before I embarked on this annual ritual, I had to get myself mentally prepared.

A good breakfast, eggs, ham and bagel with tons of cream cheese...hm...yummy! 

Now,  to make a list... names, sex, ages, likes, dislikes. This was the best method, this way I won't get wrong gifts. Gifts had to be useful, something that the receiver can use, not something they put away in a dark corner and never see daylight again.

A friend once said that Christmas gifts are the least useful, nice to receive that is all.

I had a list of 50 people ranging from age 2 months to infinite. As i was working down the list, there was this one person whom I can't think of what to get. What can you get for a person who doesn't need anything? He has everything that I can possibly think of. Now, I was talking about things within my budget means, not some Ferrari, or Lamborghini. Skipped this and work on it later.

My excel sheets are filling up fast, yeh! I am almost there. Will plan where to go shop for these next. It is like a war zone out there. I am planning my route carefully, must strategise.....I come I see I buy!! Hahaha.....
